Angry Some f***er keyed my car!!

I'm so pissed off right now. Just got back from the mall and just noticed my driver side door keyed down to the paint. Its mind boggling how humanity can be so jealous, malicious, and just plain evil. I'm a doctor and I work my *** of helping others out and times like this I feel like say "screw you" to everyone else and just not give a ****! I'm so fustrated right now. I hope to whoever did this that Karma catches up with them.

That sucks man, did u park ur car far away so it's noticable? Everytime I go to the mall with my ISF I always park where there's alot of traffic and cars so it won't get noticed.

I had the same thing happen to me a long time ago when I had my 350Z. For no reason at all or possibly out of jealousy, I had a key right across my passenger side door. I've been lucky with my IS-F so far. However that is my worst nightmare! I always look around the car whenever I get into the car. Sorry to hear that. I too hope karma catches up to whoever keys whoever's car. Pisses me off hearing your story.

Wow man, I'm sorry to hear that I've had it happen to me before as well, you just have to tell yourself shi* happens and you move on, it's something that can be fixed. Good luck!

I saw this in the IS-F thread and got prepared for the worst ...ppl can be very f'd up nowadays. Too many haters out there, hopefully all catches up to whoever did it and they get it back 10x harder.

I see your location is Burbank... Im always in Burbank, did this happen in that mall?

It happened at the Glendale Galleria. Gave them a call to see if they have any security cameras and if I could take a look at the footage. They gave me some BS that they don't allow review of their private security camera footage. I parked my car in a well lit area right in the area that was very public...I usually try to to prevent such things like this, but even that obviously didn't work. I feel like crap right now. I don't want to even look at the car. I will likely have to get the door resprayed and given that it's starfire pearl, it'll likely be pretty hefty. Life just blows right now...

I was just at the Galleria too picking my mother up from shopping around 5-6ish (spent all my $)....I would make an attempt and talk to a GPD officer inside the security office and go past the stupid rent-a-cops that don't know jack. I'm sure if you explain your situation and that it wasn't a regular car being vandalized they will take it a bit more seriously, and maybe review the tapes themselves.

If they dont allow it, than whats the point of a camera there anyways?

Sorry to hear it. I had my JGC keyed in Boston - all around the whole car. It was keyed for NO reason and it wasn't even a flashy car. Probably just for a parking spot. In any case, that's the reason I have 2 cars. 1 for malls and shopping and 1 for work and fun. The minivan attracts VERY little attention. Hey, look at the bright side - you're a doc and in the whole big scope of things, your life is good/will be better where the great majority - especially those that have no morals and ethics probably are working for minimum wage and gets shafted all the time for the rest of life. I'd still rather be you and have a keyed car than the dude who keyed you and probably drives some rust bucket fart-canned ricermobile making minimun wage flipping burgers while his girlfriend (if he even has one) is cheating on him. That's the way I look at it at least. BTW, I'm not trying to offend burger flippers - I'm just making a point.
